You reckon that's bad, A mate of mine was leading Integral Crack at Booroomba, took a factor 2 fall from near the top. That rope went behind the top of a flake, the sheath was stripped/melted for 5 metres or so and 4 of the 6 inner cores were cut through. Pete was left dangling on two flimsy fluffy cores. Very scarey indeed. Pete has never been quite the same after that episode.
